Battery in the camera + 1 spare battery – for example, the single battery.

A guide value, not a guarantee: based on approx. 700 shots using the viewfinder per battery charge (CIPA figure from Canon for the EOS 5DS, a standardised comparison test) or approx. 90 minutes of video (total movie recording time according to Canon, fully charged LP-E6N, Movie Servo AF disabled, 23 °C). According to Canon, the actual runtime depends on the conditions of use; we have not measured these figures with Baxxtar batteries.
